pickAlmost a DNF for me, but gladly I gave it just a bit longer & the book picked up some steam in the plot department, instead of just the philosophy of nihilism during the period of peasant emancipation in Russia. The deeper story of young people full of themselves and their relationships to their parents as they go through knowing it all and knowing it better to settling down and becoming part of the larger community is classic.

DGRachel I read this before senior year of high school and remember loving it. It‘s why I‘m always so disappointed when I struggle with other Russian classics. 7y
